[Verse 1: GOOSE]
THIS STUFF IS DANGEROUS
AIN'T NOTHING STRANGE TO US
BUT IT'S AMAZING HOW THIS RAP GAME
CHANGED SO MUCH
WE USED TO SPRAY PAINT THE TRAINS
TRY TO TAKE YOUR LUNCH
NOW YOU COULD DROP ONE SILLY SONG
AND MAKE SO MUCH
IF YOU JUST SPILL YA GUTS
IF YOU COULD LAY IT ON THE LINE
PUT THE PENCIL TO THE PAPER
TRY TO SAY IT ALL IN TIME
UNTIL THE PEN IS YOUR BEST FRIEND
THE PAPERS YOUR HO
THEN YOU PRACTICE AND YOU PRACTICE
TILL THEM HATERS ALL KNOW
WATCH YOUR REP GET BIGGER
AND THE WORD STARTS SPREADING
AND YOUR WORDS START GETTING
AIRPLAY ALL THE TIME
THEN YOUR POCKETS START SWELLING
AND THE BIRDS START THINKING
BETTER GO AND GET THE WORM
BEFORE THE OTHER BIRDS FIND HIM
IT'S TIMES LIKE THESE
YOU NEED TO HEART IT OUT
TRY TO REMEMBER WHO YOU WERE
THE DAY YOU STARTED OUT
WRITE YOUR RHYMES IN THE SUN
WHILE YOU TAKING TOKES
THIS IS RAP 101
HOPE YOU TAKING NOTES
[Hook: GOOSE]
JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S GOING WELL
DOESN'T MEAN YOUR RECORD'S GONNA SELL
AND I KNOW
JUST BECAUSE YOU FINALLY GOT SIGNED
DOESN'T MEAN THAT YA'LL GONNA SHINE
AND I KNOW

[Verse 2: GOOSE]
SO NOW YOU GOT A LITTLE SOMETHING
AND YOUR NAMES HOT
AIN'T A CHANCE IN HELL
YOU GONNA STAY UP IN THE SAME SPOT
BUY YOURSELF A CRIB
AND ANOTHER FOR YOUR FAM TOO
WHIP FOR YOUR GIRL
GOLD WATCH FOR YOUR HAND TOO
NOW YOU IN THE CLUBS
WITH YOUR TABLES GETTING V.I.P'D UP
BOTTLES KEEP COMING
SO THERE'S BITCHES GETTING PICKED UP
CHAUFFEUR'S OUTSIDE WITH THE RIDE
FOR THE DICK SUCK
SHOWS EVERY OTHER DAY
MICS GETTING RIPPED UP
WAIT UNTIL YOUR FANS START HATING
AND THE SALES START DROPPING
AND THEY DISS YOU IN THE PRESS
SO NOW YOU'RE BENT
JUST WAIT UNTIL YOUR LABEL
JUST DROPS YOU
AND THE TAX MAN'S COMING
AND HE'S ASKING
BOUT HIS 38 PERCENT
NOW IT'S TIMES LIKE THESE
YOU GOTTA THINK THE HARDEST
BEFORE YOU OPEN UP YOUR MOUTH
AND CALL YOURSELF AN ARTIST
ANYBODY HERE CAN RAP
IT TAKES SKILL TO WRITE SONGS
IT AIN'T A RACE DOG
ITS WHO COULD GO THE FARTHEST
FOR REAL
[Hook: GOOSE]
JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S GOING WELL
DOESN'T MEAN YOUR RECORD'S GONNA SELL
AND I KNOW
JUST BECAUSE YOU FINALLY GOT SIGNED
DOESN'T MEAN THAT YA'LL GONNA SHINE
AND I KNOW

[Verse 3: GOOSE]
SO NOW YOU BACK IN THE HOOD
WITH YOUR HOMEBOYS
BROKE AS YOUR HOMEBOYS
JUST ANOTHER THUG
I'LL TELL YOU FROM THE GET GO
BITCH YOU SHOULD OF LET GO
WASHED UP RAPPERS
NEVER GET NO GROUPIE LOVE
HE TRIED TO MAKE A COMEBACK
KID THERE AIN'T NO COME BACK
CORNY ASS RAPPING
AND HIS BEATS WOULDN'T HIT
I TRIED TO TELL HIM WAY BACK
KID THERE AIN'T NO WAY BACK
IT AIN'T WHERE YOUR FROM SON
IT'S WHO YOU ROLLING WITH
USED TO HAVE THE BIG CRIBS
NICE CARS INCREDIBLE BEAMS
NOW HE'S GOT A DRUG HABIT
AND TWO FEDERAL LIENS
WITH SIX KIDS IN FOUR STATES
FROM HOLLOW FAKE WOMEN
THAT USED TO COME BACK STAGE
TO FORNICATE WITH EM
NOW HE'S GETTING LETTERS
FROM DEBT COLLECTORS AND LAWYERS
AND DEALERS LOOKING FOR MONEY
BUT HE'S BROKE
THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS
REMEMBER ALL THAT GLITTERS AIN'T GOLD
CUZ THESE RAPPERS NOWADAYS
ARE JUST A JOKE
PEACE
[Hook: GOOSE]
JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT'S GOING WELL
DOESN'T MEAN YOUR RECORD'S GONNA SELL
AND I KNOW
JUST BECAUSE YOU FINALLY GOT SIGNED
DOESN'T MEAN THAT YA'LL GONNA SHINE
AND I KNOW
